My servers are constantly getting hit by bots/wankers. It's not that big of a deal if you know how to take care of it (fail2ban works wonders). Obscurity is not really security. I've stopped sanitizing my logs for the server ip's. I just don't care anymore.

In 99% of these cases your machine is being hit by a bot (sipvicious,

Your "adult option" is the best bet.  Drop them, log them, and move on.
